About the role
We're looking for physically fit and reliable individuals to join our chicken catching teams. This is hands-on, active work that requires care, stamina and a genuine respect for animal welfare — and it pays accordingly.

What you'll be doing
- Catching and handling poultry humanely to the highest welfare standards
- Loading birds for transportation as part of a trained team
- Carrying out full depopulations, partial catches and pullet moves
- Following strict biosecurity protocols on every site visit
- Working flexible and sometimes irregular shift patterns including early starts
What we're looking for

- A team player who takes animal welfare seriously
- Able to follow strict biosecurity procedures
